Reflections on South Africa 2008-09-27 12:32:06 This past week, around 25 of us from the MBA were in SouthAfrica

and see how it is evolving. I am still in Cape Town - part holidaying and part finishing up my dissertation - but thought I'd make this blog post while my thoughts are still fresh :-)South Africa is now routinely mentioned in the same breath as the emerging economies of Brazil, Read more:Reflections
